Event Budget Estimate
Event Budget Planning helps you estimate total costs and per-person expenses.
Total Budget = Venue + (Food per Person × Attendees) + Entertainment + Decorations + Miscellaneous
Cost per Attendee = Total Budget / Number of Attendees
Typical budget allocation:
- Venue: 25–35% of total budget
- Food & Beverage: 30–40%
- Entertainment/Speakers: 10–15%
- Decorations/Setup: 5–10%
- Miscellaneous (AV, printing, etc.): 5–10%
Pro tip: Add a 10–15% contingency buffer for unexpected expenses.
